more action from Poker News:
40 Winks
Educated Guess: Devilfish raised it up preflop and received two callers - cut-off and big blind.
Personally witnessed: Devilfish led for 6,000 on a http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/jh.gifhttp://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/10h.gifhttp://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/kc.gif flop. The cut-off called. Both players checked the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/ah.gif turn, only for the man from Hull to fire out 12,000 on the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/9d.gif river.
Found amusing: Devilfish said, "Wake me up when it's over" and closed his eyes for a snooze. After a while, his opponent folded http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/kd.gifhttp://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/jd.gif face-up. Devilfish opened his eyes and asked, "What happened?" The dealer pushed the pot to Devilfish who, after some encouragement, showed the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/kh.gif. "I'll you show you that one. Not too relevant though".

Quality stuff. Not as possible online but to have a fraction of that game play live would be cool.

booooo!
another update from PokerNews.com
Singing & Folding
Receiving a massage doesn't equate to passive play for the Devilfish; he's playing just as aggressively as before. For his last encounter, the former jeweler raised it up to 4,200 preflop from mid position, and received a call from Tobias Reinkemeier who defended in the big blind.
As the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/6s.gifhttp://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/kc.gifhttp://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/7h.gif flop was dealt out, Devilfish burst into song and nonchalantly continuation bet 7,000 once his German foe had checked. Reinkemeier made the call.
Both players checked the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/5h.gif turn, but Reinkemeier turned aggressor on the http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/ks.gif river, betting 12,000 to take down the pot.
As Devilfish drops to 135,000, Reinkemeier increases his stack to 160,000. David Docherty, meanwhile, who is seat two seats to the left of the Hullonian, has more than both of them with 235,000.

LOL!
Devilfish Still Singing
The tune right now (although we use the term 'tune' in the loosest sense possible, given who's singing it) seems to be Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues. Other players are calling for a penalty.
They obviously aren't too familiar with our man's talents...

Good luck Dave, and remember..fold that aj!

well at very least it's a cash!
36 finished the day, Devilfish desperately wanted to avoid being bubble boy after last year.
Guaranteed at least £21,142 and anything can happen on Day 4.
It's shaping up to be one HELL of a finish with Praz Bansi, Barry Shulman,John Kabbaj, Ram Vaswani, Daniel Negreanu, Chris Bjorin, Doyle Brunson, Liz Lieu and Novemeber Niner James Akenhead still in the mix.
Cmon Devilfish!
Cmon Dave :clap:you can do it:biggrin:

Devilfish Kicked Out by Sheringham (35th Place, £21,142)
We looked up from our laptops to find Devilfish all in on the main feature table.
Devilfish: http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/ks.gif http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/9s.gif
Teddy Sheringham: http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/as.gif http://www.pokernews.com/i/cards_sign/qc.gif

The footballing legend in this manner knocked out the poker legend. We wonder how Devilfish would do playing football. Either way, he's gone, and takes home £21,142 for his trouble.
Well that's it for the WSOPE for this year, wp Devilfish and best of luck in the EPT at the weekend!
